Doesn't too much matter. Whatever makes you happy will work. There aren't a lot of silly rules because Python projects can be simple.

  • /scripts or /bin for that kind of command-line interface stuff
  • /tests for your tests
  • /lib for your C-language libraries
  • /doc for most documentation
  • /apidoc for the Epydoc-generated API docs.

And the top-level directory can contain README's, Config's and whatnot.

The hard choice is whether or not to use a /src tree. Python doesn't have a distinction between /src, /lib, and /bin like Java or C has.

Since a top-level /src directory is seen by some as meaningless, your top-level directory can be the top-level architecture of your application.

  • /foo
  • /bar
  • /baz

I recommend putting all of this under the "name-of-my-product" directory. So, if you're writing an application named quux, the directory that contains all this stuff is named /quux.

Another project's PYTHONPATH, then, can include /path/to/quux/foo to reuse the QUUX.foo module.

In my case, since I use Komodo Edit, my IDE cuft is a single .KPF file. I actually put that in the top-level /quux directory, and omit adding it to SVN.
